Christina Maria Ferrer, beloved mother, grandmother, and cherished family member, passed away peacefully on September 13, 2025, at the age of 79.

Born in Havana, Cuba, Christina came to the United States as part of the Peter Pan program, beginning a new life full of resilience and strength. She settled in Newark, New Jersey, where she graduated from high school and built a life rooted in love, hard work, and family.

Christina is survived by her two loving children, Peter George Melton and Cesar Alfonso Dominguez; her four adored grandchildren, Michelle, Peter Jr., Jose, and Jeremy; as well as many nieces, nephews, and extended family who loved her dearly. She will be remembered for her devotion to her family, her warm heart, and the joy she brought to all who knew her.

Her life was a testament to courage, sacrifice, and love, and her memory will continue to live on in the hearts of her family and friends.
